Copied from the Linux kernel MAINTAINERS file.
A Reviewer is designated person who wishes to review changes
in areas of interest.

Added self as Reviewer for baseband.

I am a Linux kernel Reviewer for the fpga n3000/vista creek which
has several bitstream based baseband devices.  So I want to help
out here as well.

Hi Tom, 

Thanks for the help. 
Note that they are a few other BBDEV patches in flight for 20.11 on top of the acc100 PMD that you may want to be aware of.

I don't understand the need of differenciating maintainer and reviewer.
If you are trusted enough, why not just being co-maintainer?

I want to help out with the reviews, the reviewer type makes clear this level of commitment.

Maintainer is the next, higher level of commitment.


Trust wise, this would allow the maintainer verify the reviewer does have the bandwidth to be responsive

and effective before committing to sharing responsibility.

Sorry I fail to understand.
My understanding is that you want to be Cc
but not committing for responsibility.
Would it be the same if you create a mail filter on your side?

This model is really not clear to me so I'm reluctant to add
such new category until I understand the benefit.
